Let’s make it a good one

Let's make it a good one

By Healing Insights with Jen on July 23, 2024

The magenta slide beckoned us all.
The sun was shining.
The clear air filled our lungs.
We were not supposed to be here today.

This slide, this green open space was
Not on the agenda.
But isn't life marvelous?
Our well-thought out plans went
Right out the window.

One cancellation.
And a shift,
A rift in our schedule.
Let's make it a good one.

Let's not squander it,
Smooth it over with more tasks.

The gaps filled with joy,
A playful laugh.
A child calls out to his mother.

You run into my outstretched arms
And call to me, to watch you run,
Watch you play.
A smile forms across my face.
My lips blow you a kiss.

We were not supposed to be here today
But I'm glad we did.
